Border / Stroke Effect Updated 5/21/2007

Recommended Posts

This "effect" will draw a border around image or selection with your primary color. This is like the feature in photoshop were you can "stroke" a selection. It had option to stroke outside, middle or inside. This does inside only. Perhaps I can make changes to give those options. Other enhancement would be so it can work with circular and lasso selections, not sure how I can do that yet.

Simple process, has a size from 1-25 and an option to make it dashed.

After border is created, distort and blur effects can be used to make it look much more interesting, that is were you get creative.

Finally! A border plug-in. Thanks so much Madjik! I've been waiting a long time for one of these. I did find a bug: If you try to add a border to a circle, it turns out as a square with the corners cut off.

Is there any possible way we could use this effect to outline objects instead of the work itself? Not sure if you understand what I mean, if you don't, ask, and if you do, please help me out. It would be greatly appreciated.

Not quite sure what you mean here, but if you mean I used your code as reference, I actually used boltbait's GridMaker for this one. If it makes any difference, I have referenced your code for a new plugin I am working on, as well as other code posted here by other members.
